Fried zucchini #1

6 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
6 Zucchini
Corn oil
3 Eggs; beaten
½ teaspoon Salt
¼ teaspoon Pepper
All purpose flour

Directions

Wash the zucchini and remove the tips on both ends; do not peel. Using a long, thin knife, slice the zucchini lengthwise into julienne strips not more than ⅜ in. thick. Place the zucchini strips in a bowl of salted ice water and soak for 5 minutes. Drain and pat dry with paper towels. Using a deep-fat fryer or a deep saucepan and a thermometer, heat about 4 in. of the corn oil to a temperature of 350F to 375F. Combine the eggs, 2 tablespoons water, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl. Lay a small pile of the flour on a sheet of waxed paper. Dip a few slices of the zucchini in the egg mixture, then dredge in the flour. Fry the zucchini until golden brown. Drain on paper towels to remove excess grease. Arrange on a hot platter and serve immediately.
